I have no idea where he came up with this. Here is the reviewed section he supposedly used to make that call:

https://oig.justice.gov/reports/2013/s1303.pdf

In 1975, Congress amended the VRA, expanding its scope to protect language-minority citizens. Under VRA Sections 203 and 4(f)(4), certain jurisdictions must provide bilingual written materials and other assistance for non-English-speaking citizens. The language minorities covered under the VRA are American Indians, Asian Americans, Alaskan Natives, and Spanishheritage citizens. The Census Bureau determines which jurisdictions are covered under the language-minority provisions, based upon a formula set out in the VRA. Following the 2010 census, the Director of the Census Bureau determined that more than 300 jurisdictions in 24 states were subject to the VRA Section 203. See “Voting Rights Act Amendments of 2006, Determinations Under Section 203,” 76 Fed. Reg. 198 (October 13, 2011), p. 63602, http://www.justice.gov/crt/about/vot/sec_203/2011_notice.pdf (accessed on March 8, 2013).

I hope everyone observed the words “assistance for non-English speaking citizens” in the third line of the large paragraph. It didn’t reference anything about whites’ rights or privileges anywhere. This guy is going to be the best screw-up since Howard Dean.
